When you open the box, you’ll see a bunch of metal pieces that look vaguely alien. Don’t panic. This is like assembling IKEA furniture, except you won’t have to name your drawer “Bjørk” by the end. You’ve got the faucet head, the supply tubes, and about fourteen washers that look identical—until you drop one and it rolls under the fridge forever.
Pro tip: Lay everything out on a towel so you don’t lose a tiny rubber gasket. That gasket is the most important piece you’ll never find again, like the matching sock in a laundry cycle.
